  I’d love someone to test this theory.

  Feels like many of the records in my collection with (minor) warps are the 180g ones!

  Recently mark from sound matters was casting doubt too: www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0EFmGJ9BaA

  The thicker ones are these 180 gram pressings that some people like. Some people say they sound better, or warp less. I dunno man. Im skeptical.

  Well, you can plug in a keyboard and use termux. I doubt it would be fun though.

  If you look on aliexpress, they sell zip cases for batteries that have a foam insert with holes cut for different sizes of batteries. They also have mesh zip pockets inside for your flatter coin cells etc.

  We have one and I haven’t looked back.

  I worry about house fires, so I find this gives peace of mind over shorting batteries. Safety concerns aside, it just helps with overall organisation.

  Man, it was glorious.

  Remember when it was generally accepted that an advert was a small banner at the top of your phpnuke forum, while you listened to Iron Maiden in musicmatch jukebox, while hanging on msn messenger.

  Chu is cheap. Maybe they used scrappy plastics?

  Fwiw I have many IEMs and have never seen that!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The left earbud of my IEMs is incredibly quiet, what's wrong with it?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Thats weird.

  Are they old? Maybe rubber/plastic has degraded?

  What model are they?

  Check if the filter is clogged?

  Yes. We just have different priorities.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s certainly a derogatory term, but not for the poor.

  Do a search on the Internet for the implications.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a tool where I can compare multiple copies of the same file in different directories / hard drives to check if files got corrupted?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You could do a dry run with rsync and see what it reports needs update.

  I think you’d have to force it to use checksums instead of time stamps.
